Step 3

Keep pot covered and shake every few seconds. Be sure to keep the pot moving so the kernels and sugar do not burn.

Step 4

When the popping slows to once every 3 seconds, remove pot from heat. Continue to shake the pot until popping has stopped.

Step 5

Carefully remove lid, and transfer the hot popcorn into a large bowl or parchment-lined baking sheet. Taste the popcorn. If desired, add remaining ¼ teaspoon (2 g) of salt. Shake and toss popcorn to distribute the salt.

Step 6

Let cool slightly. Serve immediately.

Chef's Tip


*For a darker caramel, use Redpath® Dark Brown Sugar in place of the Redpath® Golden Yellow Sugar.

*For a more subtle caramelized popcorn, use Redpath® Organic Granulated Sugar or Redpath Simply Raw™ Turbinado Sugar.

*Canola oil or coconut oil can be used in place of the vegetable oil.
